Overview
Dell Display Manager is a Windows application used to manage a monitor
or a group of monitors. It allows manual adjustment of the displayed image,
assignment of automatic settings, energy management, window organization,
image rotation, and other features on select Dell monitors. Once installed, Dell
display manager runs each time the computer starts and its icon is placed in
the notification tray. Information about monitors connected to the computer
is displayed when you hover the mouse pointer over the notification tray icon.
NOTE: Dell Display Manager needs to use DDC/CI channel to communicate
with your monitor. Please make sure DDC/CI is enabled in the menu as
below.

Setting Basic Display Functions
A preset mode for the selected monitor can be manually applied using the
menu on the Basic tab. Alternatively, Auto Mode can be enabled. Auto Mode
causes your preferred preset mode to be applied automatically when specific
applications are active. A message momentarily appears on the screen showing
the selected preset mode.
The selected monitor’s brightness and contrast can also be directly adjusted
from the Basic tab.
Assigning Preset Modes to Applications | 7
Assigning Preset Modes to Applications
The Auto Mode tab allows you to associate a specific preset mode with a
specific application, and apply it automatically. When Auto Mode is enabled,
Dell Display Manager automatically switches to the corresponding preset mode
whenever the associated application is activated. The preset mode assigned to
a particular application may be the same on each connected monitor, or it can
vary from one monitor to the next.
Dell Display Manager is pre-configured for many popular applications. To add
a new application to the assignment list, simply drag the application from the
desktop, Windows Start Menu, or elsewhere, and drop it onto the current list.
NOTE: Preset mode assignments targeting batch files, scripts, and
loaders, as well as non-executable files such as zip archives or packed
In addition an option can be enabled that activates the Game preset mode when
a Direct3D application is run in full-screen mode. To override this behavior for
Mode. Applications present in the assignment list take priority over the general
Direct3D setting.

| Managing Multiple Video Inputs
Managing Multiple Video Inputs
The Input Manager tab provides convenient ways for you to manage multiple
video inputs connected to your Dell monitor. It makes it very easy to switch
between inputs while you work with multiple computers.
All video input ports available to your monitor are listed. You can give each input a
name as you like. Please save your changes after editing.
You can define a shortcut key to quickly switch to your favorite input and another
shortcut key to quickly switch between two inputs if you often work between
them.
NOTE: DDM communicates with your monitor even when the monitor is
displaying video from another computer. You can install DDM on the PC you
frequently use and control input switching from it. You may also install DDM
on other PCs connected to the monitor.

Brightness can automatically be set to minimum level or the monitor can be put
to sleep in order to save additional power.

your PC, especially the connectors should be firmly inserted into
position.
